Custom Training Advantages

With so many existing training applications available on the shelves of software stores today, what reasons would you have to develop a custom solution? We can name more than a few.

Custom training applications are developed based on an assessment process of your organization's learning needs. This means that your product isn't a cookie-cutter solution -- it focuses specifically on your organization's training processes and your employees' needs.

Off-the-shelf training products offer a generic solution, providing a simple overview without covering the internal issues relevant to your organization's specific roles and policies. Custom training not only allows you to train to specific needs, but it lets you personalize content with your organization's image and internal procedures. In addition, unlike off-the-shelf products, customized programs allow for updates to content so that reflected procedures and internal policies are always current. Your program never becomes outdated.

Finally, from a marketing perspective, offering sophisticated and personalized training makes your organization appear more reputable to prospective clients, employees, and strategic partners.

Outsourcing Computer-Based Training (CBT) Development
Are you considering developing your computer-based training program internally? Be sure you've considered the tasks involved. When created a program in-house, courseware development can be a time-consuming process that utilizes the time of your key resources.

Let us help you. By outsourcing your CBT development, you'll have more flexibility within your organization without having to utilize your key resources. Let your people concentrate on revenue-generating tasks while we perform a needs analysis and develop custom training for you.

Your Custom Development Team
Although the needs of every project vary, most CBT projects require specific individuals performing key tasks to provide you with top-quality training. Based on the needs of your organization's training program you may work with one or more of the following team members:

Project Manager
Our project managers are your primary contact throughout the development of your CBT program. Together, you will work to determine the needs of your organization.

Project managers are also responsible for coordinating with the Custom Development team to ensure successful creation of the program -- on schedule and within budget.

Instructional Designer
Our instructional designers are responsible for creating an instructionally sound program that meets your organizations needs. They work closely with our programmers to ensure that objectives are conveyed and students are tested to those objectives as designed.

Graphic Designer
Our graphic designers are responsible for the creation of the interface, and the custom 'look and feel' of your CBT program.

Programmer/Author
Our skilled programmers and authors create the foundation of your training application. They work with our designers to implement the instruction and graphics used within your courseware.
